"hey sana unnie, you wanted to meet me" dahyun said

"yea, i wanted to give you something." sana replied then turn around to pick up the gift.

"here is a teddy bear. i know how much you like them so i got them for you"

"ooh thank you so much"

Sana then took the initiative to go up and hug dahyun. Dahyun returned the hug but it was short.

Dahyun went to do her own things after the hug.

*2am*

it was 2am in the morning, sana walked out of the room wanting to get a cup of water. She walked on dahyun and momo cuddling.

Sana felt sad. Cuddling was something very special to her and dahyun. Sana felt a pain in her heart like something stabbed it. She wanted to go drink water but after she saw momo giving a peck to dahyun she just didn't want to drink anymore.

Sana went back to her bed and thought about what just happened. She felt dahyun was happy with momo,
she could not even make dahyun that happy maybe a little bit but not to that extent.

Now, tears was brimming her eyes. She wiped them off and locked her feelings deep down.

*next day*

Twice needed to wake up early to go practice for their comeback "eyes wide open". They helped write some songs in the album and today they need to learn the choreography.

During a break, sana squatted at one corner drinking some water before getting back to training when she felt the need to throw up.

Sana rushed to the toilet and tried to vomit. Instead of the food she ate coming out of her mouth, it was a  flower petal. Although its only one, it was causing her intense pain.

She ignored it and went back to practice.

For many weeks now, sana threw up flower petals and it has gotten much worse than the first time. More frequent visits to the toilet, more frequent vomiting, and for the pain it was getting more and more intense.

Sana was getting worried, the members are also getting worried.

Sana one day decided to search on the internet to see if other people were having the same thing as her.

She realised she have "hanahaki" a disease caused from one sided love.

One day, sana felt the need to throw up again while she was in the room resting. She ran to the toilet and vomited.

Then she felt someone patting her back, she looked to her side and saw jihyo and mina.

She flushed the toilet and rinse her mouth before heading back to the room.

Jihyo and mina were the only people in the room then when sana went to the toilet.

"Sana, what happened. why are you vomiting flower petals" jihyo asked worriedly

"i...i" sana was sacred to reply

Mina decided to searched it up.

"she's suffering from hanahaki" mina said and both of them turned to look at sana.

Sana nodded her head as a sign that its true and both of them gave her a side hug.

Mina then released from the hug and read more about the disease.

"its a disease caused by one sided love. it only ends when the opposite returns their feelings, must be romantically or when the victim die. it can be cured through surgical removal but when the disease is removed, the victims feelings for the person they like disappears Usually the victim would cough up the crush favourite flower or favourite colour" mina read aloud

"oh so it can be cured"jihyo said

"but i dont want too, mina said if i do the surgery, my feeling for the person would be gone and i don't want it that to happen" sana exclaimed.

"okay but if it gets worse mina and i will bring you to the hospital ourselves" jihyo said.

"okay"

"but who do you like tho?" mina asked

"dahyun "sana said quietly

"ohh. don't worry we wont tell. trust us"

They then went back to the room and saw nayeon on the bed.

"where did you guys go?" nayeon asked

"erm... I" sana stuttered

"we went out to get snacks, but the snacks we wanted were sold out." jihyo answered for sana.

Sana thanked jihyo quietly. She's impressed at her jihyo could think of a white lie immediately and says with no stammering or jittering, consider jihyo skill useful at times.
